We are Here to Help

At the Council of Churches of the Ozarks, we understand that life happens and we’re here to help. It’s all we do!

If you’re facing a crisis, you don’t have to handle it alone: we’re here to partner with you on life’s happenings. Let’s work together to give you one less thing to worry about.

Life happens

Some days, nothing goes right for us. And sometimes, those days can turn into weeks or even months. Real life has challenges and when those challenges become overwhelming, we can help. Through our nine services, we can help with food, shelter, clothing, essential home repairs and more. We don’t stop there, however. We offer a network of compassion and an environment of dignity. It takes courage to ask for help.

Some of our first time clients tell us they were nervous to pick up the phone, or walk through the door. It’s not unusual to feel apprehensive when trying something new and it’s not uncommon for us to take time to sit quietly with a client, pray, or just listen.

Immediate help

The service hours of our services vary but most are available during normal business hours (8am-4:30pm).
